Sorry for not updating in a long time. I started the chapter but then I had other stories to update and school things. But now I'm back. I DO NOT OWN Vampire Knight. Only my OCs. Please review and enjoy.
I woke up in the infirmary. All of the night class students (the main ones) Headmaster, the prefects and Takuya were at my side. I was shocked at the numbers of people (and vampires) who were here for me. My eyes go wide before slowly returning to normal size. "What's everyone doing here? Umm, wait how did I get here?" I quizzed myself while sitting up. Takuya's face softened into relief. "You suddenly blacked out on me while we were on school grounds." He raised a brow, "I know you're not used to running fast but it shouldn't be serious enough to make you faint. Do you know what happened?" I looked down and thought for a while but I could hardly remember. I was sure that I was tired but something seemed to be pushing me down. I would've been able to stand up to the odd force but my energy was low for the moment. Raising my head back up I answered, "I don't really know." I paused as if unsure, "When we stopped it felt like something was forcing me down. And well I was a little tired at the moment so I had no choice." Takuya had his chin resting on his hands as he thought deeply. I look at everyone else. "But why are the rest of you here? Especially you guys." I ask giving a small nod toward the vampires. "Well, sorry if worrying for you is bad." Ruka sassed flipping her hair as she turned around. "Ruka." Akatsuki said in a low tone. "Since now you seem alright we'll take our leave." Kaname informed. After bowing he and the other vampires left. 'Kaname is so kind. He quickly came with the other vampires just to see if Lila was alright.' I 'hear' Yuki thinking.
Suddenly I'm bewildered. 'How could I hear Yuki's thoughts, this has never happened before!' I clench my hands with the blanket. Takuya sensed my worry, lifting his hand up to rest on my left hand. "Something's bothering you. What is it?" He asked calmly. Kaien motioned for both Zero and Yuki to go out as he left with them. Hearing the door close I relax. "I heard Yuki's thoughts. I don't know how I did it but I've never done it before." I let out, staring into nothing. "It's starting to scare me. And the vampires, this shouldn't have had anything to do with them yet they were here." I continue. I felt Takuya's serious eyes pierce me as I look over to him. "Do you remember what happened when we went demon hunting for the first time?" He asked. His eyebrows were furrowed as he had a tighter grip on my hand. "Not really." I say. He squeezes my hand harder. He looks down as if he didn't want to admit something; his hand on mine starts to tremble. I can't tell if it's from regret or if he's actually afraid of something. Now even though we've been apart for a while I know that he isn't scared easily. Believe me I still faintly remember, I've tried tactics that would've scared almost everyone, but all he really does is blink.
"I'm sorry." He mutters. I take my eyes off his trembling hand to his hidden face. "I couldn't protect you that day." He lamented still not looking at me. I tilt my head, "What do you mean? You've always been there for me when I was small." Though I tried to comfort the both of us the sinking feeling only grew within each second. Outstretching my hand I attempted to try to stroke his head but before I could reach out any farther a vision flashed in my head. 'Something dark hovering over me, its hand reaches out toward me, evil and fear is everywhere all of a sudden. The place itself loses light as it was almost pitch dark.' My hand freezes in place. That split second vision has made my whole body shiver in fear. Takuya looked up to see me almost crying. "Lila, What's wrong?!" He asked alarmed. With my free hand I cover my eyes. "I-I think I may die..s-soon." I stutter. Suddenly Takuya leaps onto his feet, putting his elbows on the bed. "No, no you won't die Lila." He reassured staring somewhat confidently into my own eyes. My eyes began to water more. For an odd reason I feel sad. Actually more like depressed, it feels like I've been like it for years! I gripped Takuya's hand in return. "But then why, do I feel so sad now? I can't stop crying." I say in a shaky voice. Tears all by themselves fell down my cheeks like a water fall. The dreadful feeling of when you're crying swallows me as I began to cry uncontrollably.
~1 hr. later~
After I've finally calmed down I felt exhausted. Takuya helped me lie down on the infirmary bed as he played a rain soundtrack on his phone which had a little piano playing in the background. I gave a small smile, he still remembered that the sound of rain were on of the things I loved listening to when I went to bed. Knowing that his presence was near and the calming music playing I closed my eyes and soon fell into a deep sleep.
The past school days went by in a flash. Today is Thursday. It has just been two days ago since I had a black out and woke up in the infirmary room. But now I feel normal again. That night didn't even feel like it happened. As if I was just dreaming the whole thing. For Takuya he said that he'd enroll in Cross Academy. He was given the choice by headmaster to become a prefect. He declined and said that he only wanted to spend the time with me in place of all of the years we haven't. I'll admit that it did feel nice to have someone I know years ago with me. But from time to time I wondered about his words he had said to me that night before we ran. "I came to see if you were still the same." Each time I wondered on it I've wanted to ask him what he meant. And if I can recall correctly he also said that I needed help. Was that just another reason why I was in the infirmary? I don't know. But I didn't want to remember that night because of the overwhelming tears I shed. It was a little embarrassing. Yet every time I tried to ask something came up, like some fangirls getting too rowdy or they appeared in front of the Night Class from the bushes (again). And whenever I tried to bring it up in a conversation we'd always get off topic about what we were talking about before. So I gave up on trying to ask. I'll save the questions for a later time, if I can remember.
~At patrol~ Before the guardian departed to their watch places Takuya insisted on coming with me. "What made you want to come?" A short silence followed. "Well I was worried that you would faint again. Then I thought 'If I go with you I would at least be able to take you back to the infirmary'." I scowled, "If you wish to see the sun rise again I suggest you don't repeat what you've just said." I say grumpily.
Takuya only raised his brow in amusement. "What on earth happened to you? Did you somehow inherit Zero's attitude?" He teased. A light blush spread across my cheeks. "Stop that! It's not funny!" I hollered punching his arm. After my fist contact though he runs, so do I. I chased him till I tackled him down which took a bit longer than I thought. The both of us rolled together then we stopped almost out of air. We looked at one another and laughed for a while, our stomach's hurting that we hardly had any air. Eventually the laughter became chuckles as we both sat up. Takuya rubs my head. "It's good to laugh with you like this. I don't remember the last time we had laughed this much." He panted. As out of breath as we were we chuckled a while longer filling each other in on our lives the past 10 years.
"So how's the hunting going on?" I asked. Takuya smirked. "It's easy enough for now. But the 'leader' is ordering around my butt for hunting level E vampires. He's been doing that to all of the top hunters more often lately." He answered with a hint of suspicion at the end. I sighed. "At least you don't have to live with vampires. They annoy the living brains outta you." Takuya raised his brow. "What happened?" I furrowed by brows angirly, just thinking of that one pureblood is enough to give me fuel to kill 12 level E's barehanded! "To say the most I thought I could trust him. But a while ago I learned that I couldn't. He just tricked me to thinking that he's a nice pureblood. He even went as far as sending his own aristocrat vampires to spy on me! Then when I confronted him he claims that I'll hurt Yuki. I mean how ridiculous is that?! Next he blabs on about how there is this spirit or something is residing in me or whatever. And leaves like nothing had ever happened!" I shouted, I can already feel my pulse.
Takuya goes back into his stage when he's thinking about something deeply. "Do you remember about our first mission?" He asks again. "You've already asked me this. What happened back then that I don't remember?" He's quiet which sets a very uncomfortable feeling. "You're a demon host." Takuya says flatly. Shocked I pulled back a little. I'm confused of how I would be such a thing. (spoiler) Sure even I knew that hunters had some vampire blood in their own veins but I've never heard of a body hosting a spirit or anything. In fact it's unheard of! "What do you mean? There's no wa-" "This isn't something you completely deny now. If you are really the Lila I knew before you'd know I would never tell a lie as such. Everything changed on that day, the day on our first mission." Takuya interrupted; by the way he spoke I can tell he's 100% serious. A sinking feeling reached my gut; I know now that this isn't going to end well.
